It has been an incredible week for the 28-year-old star, because she also announced her engagement to her long-term love Taylor Kinney on Monday. The pop star and her actor boyfriend got engaged on Valentine's Day, before celebrating with her family in her father's Italian restaurant in New York City.

Gaga announced the news by posting a snap of her stunning diamond-encrusted heart-shaped ring on Instagram, captioning the picture: "He gave me his heart on Valentine's Day, and I said YES!"

The couple met on the set of Lady Gaga's You & I music video in 2011, but didn't start dating until a few months later.
